MySpace is an online community where users can create a personal online space with information about themselves, communicate with each other, share favorite music and video content, create events and invite others to attend, participate in polls and start discussions, recommend things they like, etc. Myspace is another famous social network in the world after 
Facebook. However, MySpace can also be used to advertise products and services effectively if one conducts proper targeting. Now Myspace is using a brand called myads, it serving the ads through that network.
With MySpace MyAds advertisers have the opportunities to advertise in the form of Pay Per Click banner advertisements. MySpace targeting options allow marketers to tailor a professional and creative campaign to practically anyone on MySpace based upon their interests and location.

Interesting. I guess with better rates, myspace can beat facebook in terms of ads… I’d like to add more to it .. perhaps they should think of more tradtional advertising approaches… When it comes to advertising on the Internet, concepts like AdSense have been extremely popular mainly because of the fact they are easier to use and there is no need to interact with the actual merchant to be able to host the Ad. In case of AdSense, the solution provider (such as Google or Bing) takes care of making sure that the correct Ad shows up in your “AdSense space”. In return they pay a commission. Often this commission is only 30 to 40% of what they actually get from the merchant on per click basis.
Traditional Advertising is a method by which publishers and merchants contact each other directly regarding advertising. Thus, Traditional Advertising helps completely by passing any technology intervention such as AdSense.
